[Someone's getting a bit restless. It's not that Blue hasn't enjoyed the snow; quite the contrary. She's never seen so much snow in one place, let alone snow that seems to stay so pristine. There's something about all the snow that makes it seem less cold outside. More than that, she's caught herself having the kind of childhood fun she hasn't had in a long time: building snowmen with her raven boys, going for sleigh rides, even trying to ice skate. But the snow lasted most of December. It's now the middle of January and it still hasn't gone away.
It isn't easy to trudge from place to place in the snow. Blue loves Monmouth Manufacturing but there's only so much time she can spend inside any one place. And now that Noah's gone, Monmouth seems larger than ever with only her and Gansey residing inside.
So she goes on the network. Blue is usually a very sensible thing and occasionally, that sensibility crosses over with practical. She's never seen the point in chatting with strangers on internet discussion boards, let alone revealing anything about herself. Back then, she also didn't know the actual value of having friends to talk to. Besides, she's bored and Blue's used to a much more crowded house of people. And even sensible people give in to their restless nature now and then.
She smiles in greeting before she begins to talk, her Henrietta drawl prominent as she does:]
For as long as I can remember, I was told that if I ever kissed my true love, he would die. Maybe it's the winter's snow getting to me but I thought this could be a good ice breaker. [No pun intended.] What's the strangest thing you've ever been told?
My name's Blue and I don't know if I've ever properly introduced myself here.

Hawke. [ by way of introduction. ] And I don't know if I have anything that could work like yours.
no subject
I think that's how it should be for most people. Curses can be a dangerous thing to live with.
It's nice to meet you, Hawke.
no subject
[ she's going out on a limb here, but something tells her that curse doesn't necessarily mean the same thing for her as everyone else. ]
Same to you, Blue. Have you been here a while?
no subject
[Okay, maybe it's not a curse per say. But it felt a lot like one - especially after meeting Gansey.
She quirks an eyebrow.]
What would you call a fortune saying you'll kill your true love if you kiss him?
